Book excerpt: From an award-winning author comes a wise and tender coming-of-age story about a nine-year-old girl who runs away from her Mississippi home in 1963, befriends a lonely woman suffering loss and abuse, and embarks on a life-changing road trip. Whistling past the graveyard. That’s what Daddy called it when you did something to keep your mind off your most worstest fear... In the summer of 1963, nine-year-old Starla Claudelle runs away from her strict grandmother’s Mississippi home. Starla’s destination is Nashville, where her mother went to become a famous singer, abandoning Starla when she was three. Walking a lonely country road, Starla accepts a ride from Eula, a black woman traveling alone with a white baby. Now, on the road trip that will change her life forever, Starla sees for the first time life as it really is—as she reaches for a dream of how it could one day be.

Download or read book Doodling Dragons written by Denise Eide and published by Pedia Learning. This book was released on 2012-02-11 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This imaginative journey through the alphabet teaches all the sound(s) made by each letter. With delightful characters such as dragons, elves, and hedgehogs students giggle their way through the ABCs. Toddlers and preschoolers often beg for the book to be read again spontaneously repeating the phonogram sounds laying the groundwork to become a strong reader and speller. Children ages 0-3 are developmentally tuned to the sound(s) of the language spoken around them. Young children are drawn to Doodling Dragons and desire to hear it read again and again while they mimic each sound. This provides not only an outstanding foundation for literacy skills but aids children in developing the building blocks for spoken language. Children ages 4-7 delight in hearing the sample words for each of the A-Z phonograms. By hearing and seeing their application within words, students develop phonemic awareness, or an understanding of how sounds combine to form words. Students also delight in the silly examples which provide another memory tool for mastering difficult sounds such as the /ü/ in "püt the bütcher in the püdding"

Book Synopsis The North American Whistling-Ducks, Pochards, and Stifftails by : Paul Johnsgard
Download or read book The North American Whistling-Ducks, Pochards, and Stifftails written by Paul Johnsgard and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2017-03-24 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although the 12 species representing three waterfowl tribes described in this volume are not closely related, they fortuitously provide an instructive example of adaptive evolutionary radiation within the much larger waterfowl lineage (the family Anatidae), especially as to their divergent morphologies, life histories, and social behaviors. The whistling-ducks (Dendrocygna), with three known North American species, are notable for their permanent pair-bonds, extended biparental family care, and strong social cohesion. In contrast, males of the five typical pochards of North American diving ducks (Aythya) establish monogamous pair-bonds that are maintained only long enough to assure that the female's eggs are fertilized. The endpoint of this behavioral gradient, promiscuity or polygyny, exists among at least some of the typical stifftails (Oxyura). Such diverse reproductive strategies have exerted powerful evolutionary influences on interspecies variations in sexual dimorphism, sexual behavior, anatomy, ecology, and other traits. This volume includes more than 63,000 words, plus some 200 maps, photos, drawings, and sketches, and nearly 650 literature citations. It is the last of five volumes that describe all 55 waterfowl species that have been historically documented in North America; collectively, the volumes total over 300,000 words, with nearly 3,000 literature citations, and more than 600 maps, photos, drawings, and sketches.

Book Synopsis Whistled Languages by : R. G. Busnel
Download or read book Whistled Languages written by R. G. Busnel and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-08 with total page 155 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph deals with curious and little-known acoustic systems of commun ication based on whistling that are in use at the present time in many parts of the world and have had, on the evidence available, even greater currency in the past. In spite of their wide distribution, they have not so far received the attention they might have been expected to attract: linguistically and in other ways they are most interesting. For it should be realized that they are much more than mere codes or conventional systems of signals; they function in exactly the same way as speech (in the sense we normally use the term), being in fact rather extraordinary realizations of the languages spoken in the re gions where they occur. They utilize the vocabulary, grammar and, in many cases to a large extent, the phonology of the local speech. However their phonetic system is profoundly modified acoustically and (in some cases less so) from the point of view of articulation, because the glottal tone of every day communication, the "voice", is repl aced by a whistl e which carries the in formation. The advantage of this procedure, from the point of view of the user, is a vastly increased range as well as, under certain circumstances, a degree of secrecy. It will be shown that whistled languages appear in two main, very different forms.
